It sounds like you may have also only actually been shit-drunk twice in your life.

love this! but tiny correction: these aren’t “uncut” they are “intact” - the natural state!! :)

I mean, I wish we could, but you guys know that there are poor kids who sit home alone all night while their mom is at work and you also know that plenty of kids have shitty parents who let them just sit in front of the tv for hours. Not

It's on for me right now at 8 pm. Seriously kinds not cool.

There was nothing as raunchy as saying ‘anal’ on tv when we were kids.

Totally agree- the jokes are way too gross for prime time. And saying “parents need to monitor their kids” is actually a socioeconomic issue. Poor kids are more likely to be left alone in front of the tv, or have single parents who can't watch them all the time. Prime tv shows should just not be crude. They don't know

can we please not use the F-word? its wrong and it ruined this piece for me.

and is triply sickening because this was NO accident. its just hearth wrenching.

I just turned 30 and I've never felt happier, more centered, or more content. Not sure if I was more fuckable before - but my mind didnt allow me to enjoy it. Im looking forward to the next 10 years, and the next 10 after that. Id never go back to being 20. I don't know what "society" he is talking about but that

who are you and how did we develop the same brain? THANK YOU for this.

actually are still linked to distracted driving. our ability to notice movements in our peripheral vision goes down even while talking.

Im a lifer too. born in 84. my mom grew up in what is now called "creekside" and now theyve owned theyre house for abouut 30 years in what is now called "morningside". And I TOTALLY found that article about hipster/black people annoying. Terrible title. Lets take care of the people here...but there is certainly

no no guys - I was the first white person to move in there. it was AGES ago - 2008.

thank you for the commentary but the "you people" part is very 1980s. you KNOW as well as i do that "you people" is a bullshit excuse for overgeneralization. We are better than that. I am white and I grew up in inner city Detroit and certainly do not fall into whatever you are categorizing as "you people". This is

I love ALL OF YOU and accept you for the way you are. I am challenging myself to dispose of ANY negative thought or observation for the next week. I already work on this but this article was inspiring. Thank you for the modern dialogue.

He didn't say its "as bad as" he said fucked up. Tell me where youre from isn't fucked up in some way? Detroit is actually a ridiculously fun and awesome city. We are just so big that the fall from the top of our economic and population strength has been much more dramatic than in a city of your size. My parents

I think you missed the point. the love for detroit is even more fierce because its challenged.

this is deeply disturbing. I am so sorry that this is being directed at you but we all know it could be anyone. Good for you for speaking up. It sucks when we fall into those situations where you're like, oh, holy shit, I have to be the one to do this. But thank you for doing it. These men are disturbing,
